I wrote this manuscript to document my brain tumor discovery and decision making process, a journey spanning approximately twelve months, leading up to my final chosen method of treatment. Although my tumor was most likely benign, it was in a very serious location, sitting on top of my optic nerves, and was causing me to lose my eyesight. I had to make a decision.Some of the chapters are humorous, some rather poignant, and some include a lot of medical details. My whole point was to let readers know what that long and involved investigative process was like. I include some self-coaching strategies, helpful resources, and lots of email exchanges with friends, family and doctors. May all who read this find something in its chapters that resonates with your head and heart.

United States Supreme Court Justice Bailey Stewart, well known for her honesty, fairness, and consistency in interpreting the Constitution, becomes privy to some startling revelations, ones that will test her curiosity to know more and determine what might the public have a right to know.Befriended by an unknown, but seemingly well-versed source identified as Ivanhoe, she becomes entrenched in what has been purported to be the truths, half-truths and outright fabricated mysteries of history. The fact vs. fiction debate could lead to revisionist history, but at what cost? Her legal mind races to put the pieces of the giant jigsaw together. She calls on her former college mentor, Dr. Mathew Brumfield, solicits the help of former federal judge, Deputy Attorney General and special prosecutor Spencer Crockett and leans on her husband Dr. Zach Longfellow to guide her through a maze of information and potential landmines.Initial Ivanhoe caches of information whet the appetite: the Kennedy Assassinations, cures for cancer, alternative fuel sources, Pearl Harbor, even alien visits. On face value, the 16 Ivanhoe letters are a good read, leading to detailed facts that delve into who knew what and when and did the government know any or all of this and keep it from the public's eye?The inquiries lead to searching for records from the FBI, National Archives, the U.S. Congress, known and unknown governmental agencies and more. Stop signs abound. Threats become real.As Ivanhoe has attested, all of the information since shared with Justice Stewart is true, and there is more. As for those who would stand to win or lose with such information, there will be a day of reckoning. Legal remedies have worked their way up the ladder to reach the Supreme Court.At issue is what does the public have a right to know? You be the judge.

This book describes the experiences of an Army chaplain who officiated at the first two Memorial Services conducted in the Pentagon after 9/11, and his support to the survivors. Over two decades have passed since 9/11 and this book seeks to honor and remember those who died on that day, while also honoring and remembering the fallen heroes from all of America's wars. This book is a call for America to never forget the 1.3 million fellow Americans who died for their country; and to encourage today's overworked and "all volunteer" military. Stories are included from Chaplain Jenkins' service at the Pentagon, in Iraq, on the staff of General Martin Dempsey, and from his tenure as the Rear Detachment chaplain for the 82nd Airborne Division. With the 82nd, Chaplain Jenkins officiated at well over one hundred services for fallen paratroopers. This book traces the struggles, and eventual breakthroughs of Native Americans, African Americans, Japanese and Chinese minorities in relation to military service. Against major barriers, heroic service and sacrifice are seen from these groups. Various vignettes of military heroes, from the 18th century until the present, are described as a reminder for America to remain grateful for the sacrifices of her military.

Sometimes life can pack a punch. Things happen and can knock you down. Sometimes when you least expect it life gets in your way and can turn you upside down. Answers you are looking for aren't always crystal clear. And even in the thick of everything one thing is always constant and never changing. Jesus. No matter how things go or don't go He is always the same and never changing. He carries you through it. And he never lets you down. No matter the circumstances or how bad things look his ways are higher than our way. This 20 days devotional book is about those times. Time to reflect and reexamine where our priorities are. Time to see things through his "eyes" not our own. Each day has nuggets of truth sprinkled with Gods word. Each day we need to be reminded that no matter what is going on in our lives that God needs to come first before anything else. And he loves us for who we are not what we aren't. Enjoy the journey!

This book is not about women, it's about what's done to women so let me ask you a question. When you put on makeup in the morning or for a date, who decides the color of the eye shadow? Is it you? Are you sure or did some advertisement or sales person influence you? Should you go with smoky eyes? Do you need it at all?Are you overweight? By how much? Who decides? Your dress size, doctor, significant other, the mirror, what? What about your shape? Are the curves in the right place? Are your breasts too large, too small or, heaven forbid, sagging? What about your butt? Oh my God, is that cellulite?What about other less superficial things like how real is the "Glass Ceiling" and does it matter? What about children and how many? What about abortion? Work or stay at home? Etc.You don't have to answer but we both know that millions of women wrestle with questions like these every day but nobody bothers to ask why. Why are women put in such an awkward position that they have to question themselves in the first place?Is it possible that women question themselves because we are surrounded by ancient myths kept alive by lies perpetrated by people with special interests and a lot of nonsense thrown in for entertainment value? Are these myths, lies and nonsense designed to keep you, the 21st century woman, from achieving true social parity?The answer is a resounding yes and this book provides the answers to questions you may have never thought to ask but should have.

"If I board the wrong train, it is of no use running along thecorridor in the other direction." - Dietrich BonhoefferWhat if I did not board the wrong train, but I had been thrown into it? What if it takes me years to realize that the train I've been thrown into by decisions of generations of ancestors is traveling in the wrong direction? What if I find out that all my strife to realize my dreams are null and void because Dietrich Bonhoeffer was right? What if my decision to leave that train is a dangerous, even deathly, fight, yet my desire overcomes the fear, and I jump?I jump into a fight for freedom. And against all odds, I win?At a cynical moment, I could think I experienced life in bondage which came about as a result of the mistakes and errors of previous generations. And how that bondage originated, I knew from studying history.Now, I can experience the way of a nation in bondage. What a unique opportunity. But only if I were cynical would I think that.Comparing my life environment - a country I lived in - to a train seems a little odd, but when one thinks about it, it is comparable.

Or jump off the train, which is very dangerous. That is the situation of living in a socialist or communist country. That was true for 32 years of my life. Interested?
